If you are based in Wales and interested in policy/ making a change make sure that you have a look at #FutureLeadersConnect - it is an amazing programme and something you should definitely go for!

[Welsh Youth Parliament @WelshYouthParl]

The theme for this year's #InternationalWomensDay is #BalanceforBetter, and we're proud to have seen a gender balance throughout the #WelshYouthParliament campaign. Looking forward to a balanced future for Wales in the hands of these young people. 🤷‍♀️ 🤷‍♂️

[Welsh Youth Parliament @WelshYouthParl]

In first place, Emotional and Mental Health Support, with over two thirds of the #WelshYouthParliament Members supporting this very worthy cause.

In second place, and another priority for the #WelshYouthParliament for the next two years is Littering and Plastic Waste.

[Welsh Youth Parliament @WelshYouthParl]

The young people have had their say and the results are in.
In third place, and now one of the #WelshYouthParliament's priorities for the next two years is Life Skills in the Curriculum.

It’s great seeing members attending the @WelshYouthParl! Great to see that campaigning work which @CYPAWales did to get assembly to act turn into something like this! Looks like they are having a great time! 👏👏

"This new and exciting moment in the political history of Wales not only fulfils young people’s right to take part in decisions that affect them, but I expect it to help us as a nation to make better decisions." Read my new blog on @WelshYouthParl https://t.co/AwKRmmipIg

Sesiwn gyntaf wedi dod i ben - anhygoel! Braint o’r mwyaf oedd cael cadeirio trafodaeth ardderchog. Cyfraniadau dewr, deallus a dirdynol. Mae @SeneddIeuenctid yn fwrlwm o dalent a chalon. Aelodau @CynulliadCymru - look out!

[Campaign 4 CYPAW @CYPAWales]

We are loving seeing young people sitting in the @AssemblyWales chamber discussing issues which matter to them! Congratulations! 👏👏

[Y Llywydd @yLlywydd]

First session done! Wow. A privilege to chair this historic meeting. What courage, passion and talent. The @WelshYouthParl has blown me away. Insightful contributions by all. Members of @AssemblyWales need to watch out!

[Welsh Youth Parliament @WelshYouthParl]

Here we go. History is being made. Young people’s voices are about to be heard for the first time at the heart of democracy in Wales. The #WelshYouthParliament Mambers will debate and vote on the issues most important to them and the young people of Wales.

[Campaign 4 CYPAW @CYPAWales]

Good luck to all the @WelshYouthParl members this weekend! We have been talking about a WYP for a while so have fun, take part and engage! #UNCRC #Article12

It's a busy week for #WelshYouthParliament staff as we prepare for the first residential meeting this weekend.

4 years ago we were starting our campaign for the creation of a @WelshYouthParl, today we have Members of the Youth Parliament! This shows that campaigning on an issue can bring change! #TakePart #Article12

[Campaign 4 CYPAW @CYPAWales]

Congratulations to all of those that got elected today, to those that sadly didn’t there will always be the next election but more importantly we are sure there will be opportunities to get involved in the @WelshYouthParl work in your area! To those involved good luck!
